No it was clear. I was wondering what it had to do with my van/buildup. :D

We were confirming that you should def add a tach...lol

I'm going with an Aeroforce interceptor gauge.

I was just fiddling with a bluetooth OBDii module and my tablet/phone last night. You could always just have your tach display on your phone. $20, no wires, no fuss. Simple.

After the epic battle of removing the seat rails mounted on the floor, I needed a flat, non slip, (or as close as i could get) floor surface, so i bought the highest exterior grade 3/4" plywood I could find and figured I'd try some deck restore type paint because it has texture.
I guess we'll see how it holds up.

And some tool storage and holders.

More tool storage to come...

If that deck stuff fails, you could try commercial vinyl tile or plank. It depends if you really drag heavy stuff on it or not.

My main concern is traction when its wet/muddy/damp.

This is looking really great. The new front end makes a big difference.
I really dislike vehicles without a tach. At least on the newer ones you can use an inexpensive OBDII app on your phone, but this isn't possible on the older ones.

COB (chip on board) LED's make the inside brighter in the night time than it is in the daytime. A worthwhile investment.

on mine I just went to the junk yard and grabbed a few more dome lights from the same vans and wired them in. I replaced all the bulbs with LED ones too. I think I have like 3 or 4 lights back there now, I did buy some led strip lighting too but haven't gotten around to installing it yet.
